[PATCH v3 0/3] cdrom: gdrom: fix block I/O and capacity setting

[PATCH v3 0/3] cdrom: gdrom: fix block I/O and capacity setting

[Florian Fuchs]

Hi all,

This series fixes a gdrom driver Oops due to bad MMIO register access and
fixes the missing updates of the block layer gendisk capacity that
prevented ISO9660 mounts from working. It fixes also the case of disc
swapping by sending the Test Unit command prior to cdrom_open().

The change was tested on real Sega Dreamcast devices (PAL-E, NTSC-J,
NTSC-U) with physical CD-R discs and with GDEMU emulated discs. Before:
Oops on mount and an unusable drive. After: Successfully able to mount
and use the inserted medium.

Thanks,
Florian

v2->v3: Added patch "cdrom: gdrom: verify device access after disc swap"
        from Artur Rojek to also handle the disc swap case reliably. And

        Also handle the GDROM case in gdrom_update_capacity().
v1->v2: for "cdrom: gdrom: replace port I/O with MMIO accessors": Don't
        use helper functions with io.*_rep(), but writesw() and readsw()
        local in the respective functions. Improved failure case of
        gdrom_update_capacity() in gdrom_bdops_open().

[PATCH v3 1/3] cdrom: gdrom: replace port I/O with MMIO accessors

[Florian Fuchs]

GDROM_DATA_REG is a memory-mapped data register, but the driver uses
outsw() and insw() only for this register. Replace this with MMIO
accessors readsw() / writesw().

Before, it oopsed accessing the data register, as the io_port_base
P2SEG gets added to the argument in outsw() / insw(), which leads to an
unusable drive:

[PATCH v3 2/3] cdrom: gdrom: update gendisk capacity on open

[Florian Fuchs]

Update the gendisk capacity of the media. Without the capacity, the block
reads fail before reaching the request queue, which prevented ISO9660
mounts. Refresh the capacity from the TOC leadout in gdrom_bdops_open()
so it checks the inserted media.

Hey Florian,
thanks for v3. Verified on real hardware.

Since you already clobber the return value of
gdrom_readtoc_cmd(gd.toc, 1), then how about make it even simpler:

>        if (gdrom_readtoc_cmd(gd.toc, 1) && gdrom_readtoc_cmd(gd.toc,

With or without the above change:

[PATCH v3 3/3] cdrom: gdrom: verify device access after disc swap

[Florian Fuchs]

From: Artur Rojek <contact@artur-rojek.eu>

To ready the drive for cdrom_open(), this driver sends a spin disc
command. However, if the cd lid has been opened and the disc de-spinned,
the very next SPI command will return UNIT_ATTENTION sense error,
resulting in a failure to mount the disc.

Fix this by sending a dummy TEST_UNIT command, which will catch the
above error, and allow subsequent commands to execute correctly.
